i miss you pikes peak....

my blog is suppose to be all about the things i love and don't love. first off, i love mountains. i love pikes peak. i love that from my parents' house you can see pikes peak. here are some pictures my sister took with her phone when she went for a walk the other day and sent them to me. it's so beautiful, even photos off of a phone look good...




what i don't love is that i no longer have mountains to look at. yes, there are giant trees here that are pretty. yes, if you drive outside of town, there are beautiful ranches with rolling hills. yes, texas has its own sort of beauty. but, where are the majestic mountains that God uses to blatantly prove how huge he is and how small we are? where are the giant rocks that beg you to go for a hike and meander through the trees and creeks?

i'm starting to like you texas, but i sure do miss my mountains...
